He went inside, asked for a manager and explained what happened. He didn’t anticipate the manager’s reaction.

“He told me in an arrogant, nasty attitude being disrespectful saying that, ‘We would’ve called the authorities on you, too,’” Minor told WTVR. “Here I am doing a good thing, bringing the money back. Most folks probably would’ve kept on going and wouldn’t have recognized it until they got home.”

Minor said he was offered another meal and a tailgate party. He later called a district manager, but says that person hung up on him. He then contacted the chain’s corporate headquarters, which offered him a $100 gift certificate.

Minor said he feels he deserves an apology.

“I deserve respect, an apologetic letter from the Bojangles’ company and probably a cash reward,” he said. “What is a $100 gift certificate when you’re bringing in $4,500?”

If you have integrity, you shouldn’t expect anything in return. It should be a joy to do the right thing! Any reward on top of doing the right thing should be the proverbial cherry on top. I agree you should have called corporate after the snotty attitude, and a hang up from the district manager.

At the end of the story he says what is $100 when you give back $4500? This implies he wants more. As for integrity, I have it. Any thing I find that’s valuable to someone I do my best to return it and never expect anything in return it’s my pleasure. Be gone you weak little troll.
